HELLOWEEN Survivor 2017 - The Dark Ride - round 8

THE DARK RIDE

The Dark Ride is the ninth studio album by Helloween, released in 2000. The album's style was quite different from Better Than Raw as it had a much darker sound, very tuned down guitars, and gruffer vocals. The album was produced by renowned figures Roy Z and Charlie Bauerfeind. It is also the last studio album to feature guitarist Roland Grapow and drummer Uli Kusch, both of whom were fired after completion of the supporting tour for the album. They went on to form the band Masterplan.

I only want to say two words about that album - FUCKING BRILLIANT. I know that is darkness and evil in it, there are tuned down guitars, there are no orange pumpkins etc etc... For me, it's one of my top 3 Helloween albums. Every song has some specific elements that I love in music, every song. Let's get down to voting.

Andi Deris - vocals
Roland Grapow – guitar
Michael Weikath – guitar
Markus Grosskopf – bass
Uli Kusch – drums

7TH ROUND TIEBREAKER RESULTS:
Mr Torture - 5 (55.6%)
Escalation 666 - 4 (44.4%)

1.
2. 
3.
4.
5.  :huh:
6. Mr Torture
7. Mirror Mirror
8. I Live For Your Pain
9. We Damn The Night
10. Salvation
11. All Over The Nations
12. Beyond The Portal

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That was a close one, Mr Torture loses with only one vote... 666 is still in the game, so I'm back to voting for If I Could Fly.

The Dark Ride is easily in my Top 10 Helloween Songs so I hope it won't get any more votes! These remaining 5 songs are so fantastic, but I guess I'll go with The Departed

I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

I think Immortal is one of the coolest songs the band has ever done.
